Abnormal crossing

Chapter 136: Looking down from the top of the tower!

After saying this.

Gu Wei's eyes were fixed on Jin.

When he had his second dream, he had seen a scene in which an alien life form split the ship where Lingge was. Gu Wei still could not forget the figure that crossed the starry sky.

If we start from this point alone, alien life and so-called alien races seem to be the same concept - they are all false lights. In other words, they are all enemies of top civilizations.

The so-called alien life forms and alien races are more like different names for the same thing because the civilizations are separated by tens of millions of years.

But on the other hand.

In the third dream that Gu Wei just ended, the alien race that Winton mentioned seemed to be somewhat different from the alien life forms.

After all, the alien life forms he knew about didn't have any such thing as advent bodies - according to Milo's previous introduction, the Star Alliance had always had some extremely sensitive and high-precision detection methods for alien life forms, and alien life forms could basically be detected in seconds as soon as they appeared.

"Aliens and alien life."

Hearing Gu Wei's question, Jin hesitated for a while and said, "This topic is complicated. Aliens and alien life can be said to be the same concept, but it is not quite right to regard them as the same concept."

Gu Wei glanced at the spiky knot on Jin's head due to lack of care: ".?"

Big sister, what makes Nolino so angry?
"Let me give you an example, so you can understand it better." Then Jin changed to a more comfortable position, swinging her long legs in front of Gu Wei: "A very simple question, how many directions are there in two-dimensional space?"

Two-dimensional space?

Although Jin's question was not very rigorous, Gu Wei answered without thinking: "Two, front and back and left and right."

Jin continued to ask: "What about the third dimension?"

Gu Wei: "Front and back, left and right, up and down, that is, the XYZ axis, two planes and one solid."

Jin continued to ask: "What about the fourth dimension?"

"Fourth dimension?" This time Gu Wei's expression was more serious: "Are you asking about the four-dimensional space or the four-dimensional space-time?"

Jin glanced at him and blinked her long eyelashes twice: "Tell me everything, based on your understanding."

"Well, four-dimensional space-time is simple," Gu Wei touched his chin, "It is a three-dimensional space with time, or a special four-dimensional space where time is projected at the speed of light. The term on Earth is called Min's space-time."

"As for the four-dimensional space, my definition before traveling through time is that a new spatial axis W is added to the XYZ axis of the three-dimensional space. It coincides with the time axis t, but the latter is a unit of time, and the former is a unit of length."

Well known.

Four-dimensional space and four-dimensional space-time are actually two concepts.

However, "thanks to" some marketing accounts before the time travel, many people who don't understand often confuse them.

What is three-dimensional space plus one-dimensional time? It is four-dimensional space and so on.
There is actually a very simple rebuttal to this perception:
Since three-dimensional space plus time is four-dimensional space, why can't three-dimensional space be composed of two-dimensional space plus time, but instead have a three-dimensional Z axis added to the X and Y axes?

X+Y+time is also three dimensions.

Actually.

The so-called four-dimensional space-time is actually a special model that introduces time in three-dimensional space - of course, there is no problem if you say it is a special model of four-dimensional space.

For example.

The static three-dimensional space is the XYZ axis that everyone comes into contact with when studying, and the objects in it are stationary.

And if this object becomes dynamic, like a tree growing, then this is a three-dimensional space with time.

At the same time, you take timed photos of the tree as it grows from small to large, and arrange these photos in a separate row, so that they can form a virtual timeline t.

The time axis t does not contain any components of the space axes xyz, so the time axis t is perpendicular to the three space axes xyz - this is four-dimensional space-time.

What about the four-dimensional space?
This thing is complicated to discuss, and even before Gu Wei traveled through time, there were still many different opinions.

If you go deeper, it's either pure mathematics or muddled philosophy.
"Well, I understand it well. Compared to the technological level on Earth, it's pretty good." After listening to Gu Wei's answer, Jin nodded slightly, but did not underestimate the relevant theories on Earth:
"Although the tower world is not a so-called 'high dimension', in order to make it easier for a fool like you to understand, you can temporarily regard it as a five-dimensional space. Note that it is a five-dimensional space."

"There are two time axes in that space. For example, if you start from point A at 1 a.m. and walk forward for an hour, you will only have a fixed position in the three-dimensional space after an hour, while there will be two points, B2 and B, in the tower space."

"In other words, at the same point in time, the creatures in the tower space will exist in two different forms based on time."

Gu Wei was stunned.

But soon.

He then understood what Jin meant.

It’s like when you reach the stage of filling out your application after the college entrance examination, if your scores meet the requirements, you have Tsinghua University and Peking University to choose from.

In three-dimensional space, which is the universe where Gu Wei is, you can only choose one of the two. Even if you become Erdianwu Satoru or Louis XVI, you cannot go to two schools.

But it is different for the top leaders of Guta. In that world, you will be in two states: an alumnus of both Peking University and Tsinghua University.

In these two states, you can even meet, eat, and team up to play together. If you are a writer, you can double the update volume.

Of course.

Based on Gu Wei's understanding of those writers, if there really was another me, I would probably just reduce my writing by half and play games.
After all, not everyone is a code addict like Gu Wei.

"." Then Gu Wei thought about it, combined with the information Jin provided, and had a vague guess in his mind: "So the alien race and the alien life are different results of the same creature being born in two different timelines?"

"You're half right, but it's actually much more complicated." Jin didn't deny Gu Wei's idea, but she didn't admit it either: "Remember the first civilization I told you about? - I mean their 'achievements'."

Achievement?

Gu Wei blinked quickly: "Are you talking about biting through a layer of the tower space?"

Gu Wei remembered it very clearly.

When describing the first generation of civilization, Jin once described it as termites:

A group of termites had bitten through a fatal hole in one of the floors of the tower.

As the termites bit through the floor, they were instantly destroyed by the rules of the tower, in less than a Planck scale of time.

However, the collapsed floor expanded into a completely new space, which is the universe they are in, and countless civilizations were born there.

"Well," Jin nodded, "This so-called 'biting through' involves a lot of knowledge that you cannot understand, but the final result is that one of the two time axes t1 and t2 in the upper space of the tower 'collapsed' into our universe along with the breach."

"So when the creatures on the upper floors of the tower reach the time intersection node, they will inevitably face a situation - one possibility is to move forward along the time axis T1 which is still on the upper floors, and the other possibility is..."

Gu Wei stared at her blankly and took over the conversation: "I came to this universe through the T2 timeline and became an alien life form."

"Correct answer," Jin snapped his fingers briskly, "And the creature that stayed in the upper space and followed the T1 timeline is officially called a Dominator in Xinghai. The Dominator plus the alien life form is the so-called alien race."

Gu Wei was silent.

original
Is this how alien life forms come about?
另外
Timeline collapses with space?

This situation has completely overturned Gu Wei's cognition. How could an imaginary concept like the timeline change like this?

Also, shouldn't the time axis always be perpendicular to the space axis?

How does it maintain this state after it collapses?
Countless questions arose in Gu Wei's mind, but unfortunately his current knowledge reserves were not enough for him to understand these contents.

Then he went over what Jin said in his mind and asked, "Then Jin, what is the difference between an alien life form and a ruler? One is intelligent and the other is not? Or is it something else?"

"No, who told you that alien life forms have no intelligence? Don't have stereotypes, okay?" Jin rolled her eyes when she heard that, with an expression that said, "You are just making up stories for Jill."
"It's just that low-level alien life forms are not very intelligent. Interference, that is, alien life forms starting from the third level, are not less intelligent than humans. In the past, there was even a fifth-level Vision-level alien life form that used tactical means to counter an elite brigade composed of nearly ten Chongyi aliens as think tanks. Thirty thousand warriors shed blood in the starry sky. That battle was even regarded as a shame for the Chongyi messenger."

"So the main difference between alien life and the Dominant is not IQ, but the difference in perspective."

Gu Wei frowned: "Perspective?"

"Yes," Jin thought for a moment, pointed his chin towards Gu Wei's bedroom, and gave an example: "For example, if you are playing with the joystick in your room, I am separated from your bedroom by obstacles such as the control room, the corridor, and the laboratory wall. If I want to see what you are doing with my naked eyes, I can only go through the obstacles to your room."

"Because the alien life forms branched into this universe due to the timeline T2, the vast majority of them must also abide by this rule."

"But the rulers on the upper floors of the tower can directly overlook this universe. All obstacles in this universe are ineffective in front of them. What if you were replaced by a civilization leader who is under special protection, an important scientific researcher or military general, or the core of some very important equipment? What do you think would happen?"

Gu Wei was stunned.

Then Jin paused and continued, "You should know that the high-level ruler's gaze is not as simple as just stretching his neck to take a look. It also includes other special effects - for example, the beginning and end of your life are not a line but a point in the eyes of the ruler. That is, at the moment it 'looks down', your life state is defined by it."

"If it wants you to live, you live. If it wants you to become middle-aged, you have to change. If it wants you to die, you die immediately."

"."

Gu Wei was silent for a moment: "Then why is the current situation like this? Shouldn't the alien race have conquered this universe long ago?"

"That's all thanks to the 'floor' of the tower," Jin said with a serious expression. "That floor blocks the view of most rulers, and only a small number of them are missed. In the countless years of intermittent civilization history of this universe, there have been less than a hundred cases where rulers have successfully looked down."

"In certain times, an average of four Dominant's glances were enough to completely destroy a civilization."

"Hey, wait a minute," Gu Wei couldn't help but interrupt Jin, "Jin, what do you mean? Four times of overlooking and destroying a civilization? Aren't there only three major civilizations in the history of the universe that have touched the upper level of the tower?"

"No, no, no, you misunderstood," Jin shook his head and corrected him, "Zhou, Xuguang and Xinghai are the civilizations that took the initiative to touch the upper level of the tower and left marks after mastering the polarized rift energy. This behavior gave the alien civilization a more convenient channel to descend into this universe, but it does not mean that the upper level of the tower cannot take the initiative to explore down."

"Before the Zhou civilization appeared, many sporadic civilizations were born in this universe. The most advanced of them was even at the upper-middle level of the seventh rank. However, these unlucky guys were wiped out by the rulers of the upper levels of the tower before they could master the polarized rift energy. To describe it in a hellish joke, they were just leeks."

"This situation of the universe being robbed continued until the Zhou civilization period, when a great scholar found a solution. Afterwards, the Zhou civilization used all its power to fill the gap, which gave the Zhou and subsequent civilizations the opportunity to continue to develop."

Gu Wei blinked rapidly.

It was Zhou Wenming again.
anyway.

Why does Jin's description sound a bit like the story of Nuwa repairing the sky?
And if Gu Wei remembered correctly.

The legend that Gonggong crashed into Mount Buzhou, causing water from the Milky Way to flow into the human world, and eventually led to Nuwa repairing it, seems to have been connected after the "Records of the Grand Historian: Supplement to the Annals of the Three Sovereigns".

In the earliest "Liezi·Tangwen" and "Huainanzi·Lanmingxun", there is actually no description of the reason why Nuwa repaired the sky.
Ahem, I think I'm overthinking.
Then Gu Wei dismissed his thoughts and looked at Jin again: "What happened next? The aliens couldn't be looked down upon, so they created that advent body?"

"That's right," Jin nodded. This line of thought was very simple: "The so-called descending body is a life created by the ruler occupying the consciousness of the creatures in this universe through some means. It is technically difficult to detect the identity of the descender."

"The advents that appeared in history have basically caused fatal damage to the peak groups at that time."

Note:
I have mixed feelings. I have been staying up late for a whole month. My mother is taking over for the past two days so I can take a break. I took melatonin at 8 pm on the 3th, hoping to get a good sleep. According to my previous habit of staying up late, I would probably wake up at 9 or 8 in the morning of the next day, but I ended up sleeping until pm on the th.

Well, I slept for 29 hours. I stopped updating yesterday for no apparent reason. Damn it, I'm in danger of being fully present. 20% of the royalties, wuwuwuwu.
